 ### Encryption Level Changes
 
 As keys at a given encryption level become available to TLS, TLS indicates to
-QUIC that reading or writing keys at that encryption level are available.  These
-events are not asynchronous; they always occur immediately after TLS is provided
-with new handshake bytes, or after TLS produces handshake bytes.
+QUIC that reading or writing keys at that encryption level are available.  While
+generating these keys, an endpoint SHOULD buffer received packets marked as
+protected by the keys being generated, and process them once those keys become
+available.  If the keys are generated asynchronously, an endpoint MAY continue

I don't think this needs a recommendation. It's an optimization, and endpoints can do as they choose.
